Help!

I ordered a twin plate clutch from Exedy and when it came in found out it is for pull type, not push type, and apparently I need a push type (i am an idiot). I did a search and found out that there is a pull to push type conversion but how about the other way around? Is is expensive? Has anyone bought a push type, if so what brand??? Thanks in advance to any advice!

ive never seen it the other way around, try returning the clutch. since its brand new its a better idea than trying to convert because it would be costly and probably not work as well as the push setup does.

the guy that ordered it for me just got off the phone with an exedy tech, (**who was very well informed on the 240/rb26 swap and the proper clutch info for it**). he said that i got some wierd, rare configuration that paired an R32 push type transmission on an early R33 engine, so I have to order an R32 clutch instead of an R33 clutch. He also said that the RB25DET clutch/flywheel would fit the R33 engine/RB25 clutch setup, but they only sell single plate clutches for that (I wanted twin plate). Hope this info helps somebody.I think I got shafted on my engine, anybody know how to tell for sure what car my engine was in other than the ball bearing/sleave bearing check?

Thanks for the help!
